The success story of rookie quarterback Brock Purdy at the San Francisco 49ers this season has been inspiring, and franchise legend Joe Staley thinks that it could even end in Super Bowl success.
Forced rotation in the quarterback position has been a theme this season, with many stars that were either in the back-up slot or third-choice being given a starting shot for a number of different reasons. The same has been the case with the 49ers, as season-ending injuries to Trey Lance and then Jimmy Garoppolo meant Purdy was thrown in at the deep end.
Purdy was the last pick of the entire 2022 NFL draft, but has found himself in a position where he is leading the 49ers into the playoffs, and potentially to more. Former 49ers offensive tackle Staley thinks that Purdy is a 'winner', and has told Mirror Sport that they have what it takes to go all the way.
